DocFlow connects to your GitHub repo. After every PR merge, it automatically updates README, API docs, and changelog — so your documentation stays in sync without anyone writing it by hand.
Three simple steps to never write docs by hand again.
Grant access to your repos. DocFlow only reads PR diffs — never stores your code.
No extra workflow config. DocFlow automatically detects the merge and analyzes what changed.
DocFlow posts a PR comment with new README sections, changelog, and API updates. Approve or edit — your call.
From messy repos to docs that ship with every change.
Every new feature requires manually updating README. It's always 2-3 releases behind. New hires get confused by outdated setup instructions.
README updates auto-magically with every PR. New team members see accurate docs on day one.
DocFlow detects which README section each PR affects and generates an update — then posts it for your review.
Changelog is a weekend chore. Nobody remembers what shipped on Tuesday. Customers complain about undocumented changes.
Every release has an accurate changelog entry — generated from commit messages + code analysis.
DocFlow aggregates PR-level changes into semantic changelog entries. No manual tracking required.
API endpoints change without notice. Other teams build against outdated contracts. Integration bugs pile up.
API documentation updates ship alongside code changes. Cross-team integration breaks drop.
DocFlow's AST analysis extracts function signatures, parameter types, and return values, then generates accurate API doc entries — no manual transcription.
Everything you need to keep documentation in sync with your codebase — automatically.
Documentation stays in sync without anyone scheduling time to write it.
Accurate docs you can trust. No invented APIs, no wrong parameter types.
Sub-30-second doc generation. Targeted updates, not a rewritten README.
Full control. AI proposes; you decide.
Your changelog is always complete and accurate.
Python, JavaScript, and TypeScript at launch.
Public repos are always free. Use DocFlow on your open-source project — no commitment.
Code is processed in real-time and never stored or used for training. Your code stays yours.
Every generated doc is posted as a PR comment for your review. Nothing gets written to your repo without you seeing it first.
Pure AST analysis provides ground truth for function signatures, parameters, and types. LLM only generates natural-language descriptions — no hallucinated APIs.
DocFlow is a GitHub App. Install it on your repository and documentation updates happen automatically — no config files, no CI pipeline changes, no CLI setup.
You'll be taken to the GitHub Marketplace listing for DocFlow.
Select individual repos or grant access to all repositories in your organization. Free plans work with public repos immediately.
From the next PR merge onward, DocFlow automatically analyzes changes and updates README, API docs, and changelog. No further setup required.
Free for public repositories. No credit card required.
Start for free. Upgrade when you need more. No hidden fees, no surprises.
For open-source projects and personal experiments.
For professional developers and small teams.
For growing teams shipping consistently.
For organizations with advanced needs.

Everything you need to know about DocFlow.
Yes. The Free tier covers unlimited public repositories with 100 PR analyses per month. For open-source maintainers, that's usually more than enough — and there's no time limit on the free plan. You can upgrade to Pro or Team anytime for private repos and higher limits.
No. After installing the DocFlow GitHub App and granting repository access, documentation is generated automatically on every PR merge. There's no config file to write, no CI pipeline to edit, and no API keys to manage — it just works out of the box.
DocFlow uses an AST + LLM hybrid engine — the AST extracts exact symbol signatures (parameters, return types, exports) so the AI never hallucinates API shapes. The LLM is only used for natural language descriptions of what the code does. Every PR gets a comment preview so you can review, edit, or reject changes before they land in your docs.
DocFlow reads your code to generate documentation but does not permanently store your source code. We cache parsed AST data temporarily during analysis (cleared after docs are generated) and only persist the documentation output itself — which you already keep in your repository. See our privacy policy for full details.
While Mintlify is excellent for writing reference docs from scratch, DocFlow is fundamentally different: it's a continuous documentation engine. After the initial setup, new documentation is generated and updated automatically on every PR merge — there's no separate write step. DocFlow also generates changelogs, updates existing READMEs, and works incrementally on only the files that changed.
Absolutely. DocFlow complements Copilot: Copilot helps you write code in your IDE, and DocFlow keeps your docs up-to-date after every PR merge. They operate at different stages of the development workflow and work great together.
If you hit your plan's PR analysis limit, DocFlow pauses until the next billing cycle (or you upgrade). Your existing documentation stays live and unchanged. You'll receive email notifications when you're approaching the limit so you can upgrade proactively.
Yes. There are no long-term contracts or cancellation fees. If you cancel a paid plan, you keep full access until the end of your current billing period, after which your account reverts to the Free tier. Your documentation is never deleted.
DocFlow supports Python, JavaScript, and TypeScript at launch. We're actively working on adding Rust and Go support — join our waitlist to be notified when new languages become available.
Yes. DocFlow respects your project's .gitignore and also supports a docflow.yml config file for granular control. You can exclude specific files, directories, or patterns from documentation, configure which doc sections are generated (README, API docs, changelog), and even set custom commit message templates.
But the docs are always behind... DocFlow makes documentation an automatic byproduct of shipping code — not a separate task you need to schedule.
No credit card. No config. Just connect your repo and ship.
